Nationals sign veteran OF David Dahl

The Washington Nationals signed veteran outfielder David Dahl and two others to minor league contracts on Friday.

Dahl, a former All-Star and career .272 hitter, is a potential insurance policy if superstar Juan Soto gets traded before the Aug. 2 deadline.

The Nationals also agreed to deals with infielder Dee Strange-Gordon and right-hander Daniel Ponce de Leon.

Dahl, 28, was released by Milwaukee Brewers on July 11 wi
